Etienne & Alice2017-08-07T00:00:00Z

We had a very good stay in kefali at Maria's house. The village and elafonissi were amazing.

Arnaud2017-09-09T00:00:00Z

Maria's home was lovely and the view was incredible! The location was perfect.... close to Elafonissi, but in an a wonderful little town, so you can relax and escape the crowds. Maria was very welcoming, and we will definitely be returning!

Alexsandra2017-08-15T00:00:00Z

Maria's place is adjacent to their Taverna and has wonderful views over the valley and food and live music right at your doorstep :). The Internet is a bit spotty in the room but Maria is ready to help out whichever way she can and is a wonderful host.

Mitch and Mirela2017-07-22T00:00:00Z

Maria and her family were great! Absolutely friendly and kind with the most positive attitude! Also great restaurant over the room with a fantastic view! I certainly will choose it again for my next tour to Chania territory!! Thank you!!

Sotiris2017-08-05T00:00:00Z

Very satisfied with our stay. The apartment is approximately a 25 minute drive to Elafonisi; Paleohora is approximately a 1 hour drive. Maria was very welcoming.

Georgios2017-08-17T00:00:00Z

A friend and I stayed in Maria's apartment due to its proximity to Elafonisi beach, but we were also blown away by the beautiful view, clean and spacious apartment, and Maria's kind and patient hospitality. We arrived VERY late at night, due to a crazy drive, and Maria was only patient and helpful to us as we made our way to her place. Our stay was wonderful from beginning to end - there were no downsides. Thank you, Maria.

Jeamir2017-08-18T00:00:00Z

Basic accommodation in mountain village 20 min drive from Elafonissi beach. Nice modern bathroom, kitchenette lacks fridge. Adjacent to a taverna. Maria was nice and communication with her was swift.

Quiet, tranquility, great views, a traditional village Head 15 minutes by car from the famous beach and Elafonisi Kedrodasos
From the terrace of the villa you can enjoy the beautiful mountain and village
In the village there are taverns and mini markets

Villa Leto is built on the hill and from the terrace you can enjoy the Sunrise mountain views in the village, the canyon, the depths village and in the distance the sea mouth.

Villa Leto and all Velanies villas have built other houses around them .The customers can thus enjoy the quiet tranquility of the countryside and only hear the sounds of birds

We stayed 4 nights in this beautiful little villa which exceeded our expectations! The villa is very clean, cosy and private and is perfectly located on the side of a mountain looking down to the small village of Kefali. Nature is all around - we woke to birds and flowers and the sun rising over the mountain. In the evening we sat on the terrace under the stars! The shared pool is lovely and the gorgeous Elafonisi beach a short drive away. Tzeni is a lovely friendly and generous host - she bought us eggs and a delicious apple pie and other gifts at the end of our stay! I cannot recommend this place enough. Thank you Tzeni!

Ellen2016-10-13T00:00:00Z

This stay exceeded our expectations. Check in and communication with host was very easy and she even greeted us with homemade cake! The views are unbelievable and the villas are adorable. I would absolutely recommend staying here and will stay again next time I'm in Crete!

rachel2017-06-16T00:00:00Z

This place was the perfect place to end our trip in Crete. Beautiful views and very quaint and cottage-y. The only two things I would change was 1) we wish we had arrived in daylight hours as it's a steep drive up to the cottage - easier to navigate once you've done so in the daylight (as any place) and 2) the weather - it was lovely and sunny for our whole trip but a bit overcast and cloudy so we couldn't enjoy the pool or outdoor space as much as we hoped (obviously beyond anyone's control ;) ). Tzeni was friendly, genuine, and flexible - our flight was delayed and she let us stay and enjoy the view for a bit longer before heading to the airport. Taverna Lefteris is highly recommended as well!

Heather2017-05-17T00:00:00Z

Amazing place, everything was perfect:)

David2017-05-31T00:00:00Z

This place is realy amazing. A cozy house and a crazy terrasse!!! We spent very good time there and tezni is always available to answer you question. Very nice beach and places near to the house. If you want to relax, this is the perfect place to be

Thierry2017-08-10T00:00:00Z

Everything was great from the beginning. Tzenis' place was amazing: clean, close to Elafonisi, great view, equipped... they were attentive at all times.... we even got an apple pie as a welcome gift!! Undoubtely, I'll come back when coming to Crete

Eduardo2016-10-03T00:00:00Z

Velanos Villas is an amazing place. Definitely would recommend this place to anyone!

Juste2017-05-02T00:00:00Z

Tzenis property is pretty, cozy, clean and nicely furnished. The whole house was very well maintained. The location is ideal as the house directly overlooks the valley. The beautiful beach Elafonisi is not far. The pictures correspond very precisely to the description. If you want to rest for a time the place is ideal and not too touristy. Tzeni had baked a cake for us. She was always there when we wanted to talk a little. Simply idyllic. We were with our son there, who has also felt comfortable. Thank you very much for your hospitality Tzeni. We will come back! Luisa, André and Daniele.

Hi am Maria!!!
I thought I good idea to rent my room that I'm away from my favorite village due to pregnancy.
My room is a single space
the name of the village is Kefali Kissamou
my room can accommodate from 1 to 4 persons
This will love my space is calm and quiet of my village with nice and welcome locals.
You will feel the warmth of my family!
This is only 15 minutes from Elafonisi and very close to Falaserna(These are the most beautiful beaches in Crete)!
Αccess to mini market,taverna

My space will enjoy the peace and tranquility.
Αlso is a good situation for you visit the famous beaches of Crete!

My village you will find the Venetian castle and an old Byzantine church.
You can discover the paths to various surrounding villages!!
You will find some of the most beautiful beaches of Crete like Elafonisi are 15 minutes by car, Falassarna is 45 minutes and Kentrodassos is 25 minutes by car.
Sometimes you will see the some local festivals

Very spacious room, with a bed, sofa and chair beautiful hard as I like. Kitchen with minimal equipment (two pans, a wok pan type, table knives, forks and spoons) cups, glasses, two pots for coffee. Block cucnare with three plates and electric oven. Comfortable. The dotaziione allows you to cook something (I have made spaghetti with garlic and olive oil) but also a stew. Obviously, you do not think of preparing a dinner of 20 courses! There is also a coolbox with freezer normal size. clean and simple bath, basin of normal size. Good water flow. The shower does not have a booth, and when you use it, it gets wet all the water and half the bathroom floor, This reminded me of my youth when in Cattolica or Riccione: it was in the boarding houses and the shower was, at times, even over the cup. However Maria also predicted this and has provided a comfortable mop to dry. Of course it is fully air conditioned and also mosquito nets. breathtaking view of the panorama of the mountains around. Of course the village is small and quiet in the mountains. There cone still a couple of tavernas to eat. convenient location for Elafonissi. Maria I have not known because not present, but there were sister Dora (English speaking) and his mother, very nice lady who runs the shop in the study of honey and home-made spirits (excellent). They even got a free small bottle of Raki with homemade honey. In this holiday in Crete I shot two accommodation booked with Air B'n'B and two hotels and, if I may, I would like to say that where I was better value for money as it is from Mary.

Vittorio2016-06-25T00:00:00Z

Very pretty location in the main square of the town. Studio was clean and well mantained. Outside good selection of restaurants. Dora, Maria's Sister, welcomed us and gave us a small welcome gift, very Kind!

Christian2016-08-08T00:00:00Z

own studio with a beautiful view of the mountains. Near the Elafonissi beach. We were very well received by the sister of Maria and we keep very good memories :)

Alexandre2016-09-09T00:00:00Z

Me and my bf were received by Maria's sister Dora: a really nice and friendly girl that lives on the upper floor. She gave me a present from Maria when we arrived: a soap, a jam a liquour and a map! soooo nice!!! the accomodation is very comfy and good described and like the pictures. It is clean, confortable with a balcony and a place to hang the clothes, a table and chairs. In front of the studio there are two taverns perfect to eat greek food. both cheap and nice. The studio is located in really strategical place to reach Elafonissi beach in just 15 minutes ! PERFECT! the landscape around is breathtaking (in the mountains) When I need some alchool for wound , Dora helped me and she also gives me some grape and a peach. Very goodheart girl. I can say that my stay there was wonderfull. Loved it! THank you very much

Veronica2016-08-23T00:00:00Z

Maria, his sister and their mom Dora received us very nicely with lots of attention. Kefali village friendly and very welcoming mountains, superb view, cute little chapel and Venetian ruins. At 20 minutes from the famous beach Elafosini. Housing faithful to the description, the bed 120 a bit small for us who are used to bigger, but the sofa makes good service. We also enjoyed the tavern recommended by Dora. In short a great stay.

eric2016-07-26T00:00:00Z

very nice place to stay, just fifteen miutes drive from the Elafonissi beach. There are also few taverns in the village and it has an amazing view. The host is very helpful and communicative. I would definitely reccomend to stay there.

Jan2016-08-04T00:00:00Z

Really nice studio, comfortable, clean, exactely in the square of the village in front of two cheap but really good tavernas. Maria and her family are lovely people, they took care of me when I arrived. Very nice and windy village, good position to visit Elafonissi and the near beautiful Kedrodasos. Thank you for the present you gave me, unexpected surprise!

Valentina2016-08-23T00:00:00Z

Very nice place in a charming little village. You have the whole studio to yourself, and there are a couple of places to eat in the town, where you will be served good food by kind people. I loved this area, very nice drive to Elafonisi beach, and it was a great value as well. I was treated so well by Maria's mother as well - truly sweet and kind. Hope to return someday.

What a beautiful location. We stayed here for 3 nights and it was just super. Very spacious room, cafeteria, with an even bigger terrace with a magnificent view over the valley. The pool is shared with 2 other stays but we were only here ... amazing! Ionnanis is a no nonsense guy. Friendly and helpful. Also provided tips for discovering the area. You have to make a firm climb to the stay. That light above the village. Basic items are found in the store tavern of this tiny village. There is a fridge in the room. We missed a small kitchen area to wash and prepare a small meal. The wifi can also be better, especially inside the room. This is recommended for those who want to enjoy the quiet but not too far from the coast. We'll be back!

Peter2017-06-04T00:00:00Z

The apartment is awesome!! The view is breath-taking!! The pool is very clean and the position of the apartment is perfect: Very quiet area, Not far from beautiful beach Elafonissi. The communication with host Ioannis is also very good, we stayed one night longer as planned before. Hope to come back soon...

Simon2017-06-29T00:00:00Z

We chose the place to easily get to Elafonissi, which is a 15-20minute drive away. Ioannis arranged to meet us at the tavern at the bottom of the lodge, and brought us up with his jeep, as small steep climbed difficult to climb by car. The cottage offers an incredible panorama, a beautiful private terrace and a perfectly perfect and clean comfort for a stay. There is no kitchenette in the one we rented but there is still a small fridge, dishes for 2, a kettle and small things like oil, salt, pepper, sugar, coffee. (Can be left by others ?!) The pool is very nice, and also offers an exceptional view! In the room we just hid the emergency lights over the front door and put a paper to hide the red light from the electric box as we like the dark night. It is best to leave the key on the outside door so that you do not get locked up outside. Ioannis is a very friendly host as well as his dog, he welcomed us very well. Nice stay!

Amandine2017-07-03T00:00:00Z

Our stay at Ionnis s place was awesome! We stayed in the suite which was big quiet and neat... We enjoyed the terrasse and the swimming pool with amazing view! Ionnis is very welcoming, good company and gave very good advices about food around. Thanks again! Kefali is a pretty village. It is close enough to Elafonissi 15/20 min drive and has 2 tavernas if you dont want to take your car. We highly recommend ! :-)

Marion2016-08-25T00:00:00Z

Ioannis’s place in the mountains was unbelievably beautiful; the photos don’t do it justice. The pool was lovely and relaxing on our private terrace in the evening watching the sun go down was a treat. The room is lovely, and exceeded my expectations also, it is very well decorated and finished. It is close to lots of lovely beaches and the local tavern is lovely.

Abi2017-07-26T00:00:00Z

We had a very good time there, nice spot, very calm and beautiful view. Everything was clean. But a little bit disappointed with the communication with the host

Edouard2017-08-09T00:00:00Z

This appartment in Kefali is beautifully quiet but with good links to various beaches. Ioannis is a great host and made an extra effort to make sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed. The room has a lovely terrace to sit out on and the pool is also nice.

Combine the relaxation of a village, with the oppurtunity to visit the most beautiful beaches of Crete!
This marvelous traditional stonehouse is located at the village named Pappadiana (Kissamou), a 20 minutes drive from the well known for their rare beauty beaches Elafonisi, Kedrodasos, and also from other magnificent bights, mountain peaks and unexplored paths.

The house is accesible from a path leading to the courtyard of the house and the main entrance and also by a staircase connecting the first floor with the road. The most beautiful view can be found in the bedroom which is located at the first floor. The bathroom, kitchen and dining room are located on the ground floor where there is also a single bed and a sofa. In the courtyard of the house one can enjoy his breakfast having a view of the green vegetation and listening to the sounds of the river. The house is equipped with the basics such as fridge and oven. In a 5-minute drive you can visit the village of Kefali eat lunch at one of its tavernas or buy fresh fruits, vegetables and other types of food.

The village of Pappadiana is divided into two neighborhoods. The house is located in the lower neighborhood and is surrounded by other stone-built houses. Near the house there is a cistern where people used to wash their clothes. There is plenty of water running on it, so it's full of plane trees. There are many paths that one can choose to explore the mountains either by bicycle or on foot.

What do you won't in holiday is there, very nice stone house with all intact for you garden with all kind of fruits all for you sound and lovely place with access to every city from you 6 minutes work to a restaurant with a life concert every Tuesday. Great and lovely place to be just like we were still in Switzerland. I so much love that place with quite natural plants looking at you enjoying nature with peace .. I found serenity all round in that house so Julie and Austin Poland from Switzerland is telling your guys that place is great and lovely .. J&P

Austin Poland2017-07-03T00:00:00Z

Niki (and her father!) is a wonderful host: they were very welcoming, the checkin and check out time table was very elastic, they offered us some local handmade desserts in two different occasions. The stone house is extremely peculiar and nice, really one of a kind. It is perfect for a couple and the position of the house as well as the configuration of the sleeping area is even romantic. The little sitting area outside the house is also very relaxing. The house is fully equipped and was very tidy and clean. The bathroom is probably the weak point of the house: it's very very tiny (even though there is all you may need, window included) and the shower floor is the floor itself, which - since it is flat - tends to flood while showering, requiring some pauses in the use of water. The house is organized on two floors, connected by a rather ripid ladder: I would not advise this solution for old people or very young kids.

Giulia2017-08-22T00:00:00Z

Niki and her family were very welcoming and we had an incredible stay! The house is typical and full of charm, the view on the mountains is breathtaking and the beautiful beach of Elafonissi is easily accessible by a 20 minutes drive. Calm and happyness guaranteed !

Martin2017-08-25T00:00:00Z

We had a great stay at Niki House. Its a lovely small house in the middle of the montains. Very very beautiful... :) A great welcome with a special orange cake! We loved it like the fruits you gave us. The house is fuly equiped and we cake reach villages and beach by car quickly. Thanks a lot Niki and your husband. See you soon in this lovely house and island :)

Victorien2017-07-20T00:00:00Z

Our stay at Nikki and Gerassimos house was exceptional and I can't find the words to describe their high level of hospitality. It is just beyond expectations and imagination We have been welcomed in this house from our first minute. OWNERS gave to us plums and oranges from their garden, homemade raki and orange cake. That was a very nice touch. We loved this house! It is such a great experience to live in traditional house with nature around you. Bed is very comfortable. House itself have an interesting decor ( ) and even have some twinkle lights in the bedroom. Was nice to turn them on in the evenings Weather was quite hot in July and it was a bit hot in bedroom, but Hosts provided a fan, so it was a saver. But at the ground floor was nice and cold at all the times. Kitchen fully equipped with everything you may need, even handjuicer and coffemachine with coffee and filters provided( my husband really appreciate that in the morning) From kitchen you can get to the outside area. We had a great breakfasts and dinners there with a beautiful views on the mountain , forest and fruit trees, accompanied by tzikadas and birds songs. Big advantage of the house is that they have a boiler there, so every shower was warm and plesant. Towels and bedding was new, clean and crisply ironed. Parking: very nice on the hill and then stairs down to the house. It was unforgettable stay and we can't wait to come back again!Elafonisi beach is about 20-25 min drive and it was perfect for us. We also visited Paleochora. Ps We would like to say thank you for your invitation to a dinner. It was great to try your homemade food and know you little bit better

Angela2017-07-12T00:00:00Z

Niki and her husband are truly wonderful hosts. We had a fantastic time and could not have been made to feel more welcome. The cottage is simple but charming. The location is fantastic as you are in a little cluster of houses but on the far edge so your view is uninterrupted over the valley and feels very private. We loved Niki's gifts of melon, fresh eggs laid by the hens outside and figs from the trees as well as some fresh calamari her husband gave us mid week - a real treat! This rustic haven was exactly what we were looking for as a good base from which we could travel out on day trips around Western Crete. The cottage is not air conditioned but this wasn't a problem at all as there are mosquito nets on all the windows to stop bugs coming in and a large fan so we were perfectly comfortable in mid August. The steps to the house and inside it are steep so I wouldn't recommend it for anyone who struggles with walking. We particularly enjoyed sitting in the deck chair out back, overlooking the valley and relaxing in the sun where we had breakfast every day as well as time to relax. We absolutely loved it and would definitely recommend it!

Emma2017-08-14T00:00:00Z

Staying at Niki and Yerasimos's Traditional Stonehouse was an amazing experience. It was one of the highlights of our trip. The house is absolutely beautiful and has many charms about it. If you are looking for a unique rustic experience, this is it! Niki and Yerasimos were incredible hosts as well. We were welcomed with fresh figs (picked from around the house), orange juice, and raki, and for breakfast we were surprised with some fresh eggs and breakfast pastry. They are good genuine people and we enjoyed our conversations with them. We also loved the location. We actually stayed close to elafonisi beach the first day because it was all that was available for that date, and we left disappointed with the lack of good restaurants and the area in general. Then we got to Niki and Yerasimos's place and the energy changed. It is peaceful and beautiful up in the mountains, and there are cooler temperatures and better food! Also, the drive is very beautiful and easy to the beach. The house and the outside sitting area is perfect to relax after a day at the beach, I highly recommend and can't wait to come back!

Natalie2017-08-16T00:00:00Z

House was very clean and tidy, and Niki and Gerasimos had prepared some pie,fruis and raki for us also. Location is nice but secluded - a car is a must have.

The house can accommodate up to 5 people (3 single beds and 2 couches. There is an internet connection, washing machine and TV. At the front of the house there is a yard that is shade by a vine arbour that provides a pleasant freshness.Hiring a car gives you the opportunity to explore the surrounding area. We can arrange RENTING A CAR in special prices. Just ask us for the availability!

We stayed about a week and enjoyed it very much! The house is calmly situated, in the village live only few people, the next mini markets and restaurants are in the next village, a 10 minutes drive by car. The house is nicely situated in the mountains for hinking. If you have a car Elafonisi is a 30 minutes drive. The house is very well equipped, everything provided for preaparing meals or making coffee. Giorgos and his parents welcomed us very warmly and had offered cake and raki and fruits for our the beginning of our stay. They also came together from Chania to say good bye when we left. The whole time he stayed in contact with us and provides ideas for hikes or place to visit. We felt really welcome and we highly recommend it!

Susanne2016-10-16T00:00:00Z

We had a pleasant stay at Feneri House. The village is quiet and surrounded by olive trees and hills. A nice neighbour welcomed us with fresh eggs. Giorgos gave us tips on the beaches to see and Kedradasos was a wonderful surprise. After we left and went to Hania we had the chance of listening to Giorgos playing lovely folk music on traditional instruments in a bar in the center. Thank-you!

Mario2016-09-05T00:00:00Z

Absolutely fantastic place! Little village in the heart of Crete. Neighbours were so friendly! We spent there 2 weeks with our 2yo son and he was given so many free local specials (fresh eggs, olive oil, toys etc). I cant imagine better place for holiday. Great distance to Elafonisi beach. Theonly things that can be improved is to arrange some kind of gate so the kids cannot go to the road and the shower is very small - if you are big person you gonna have a problem - otherwise SUPERB !!!! We will definitely come back again

Anna2016-07-27T00:00:00Z

Absolutely fantastic. The location is extraordinary is you want to reach the south west area os Crete. The house is a must if you want a country side experience - we loved it: peaceful, comfortable, you can enjoy a walk in the evening... There are a lot of places to eat in the area. Finally, Giorgos was very kind and gave us fantastic tips that made our holiday better, including an amazing beach. You will have to stay to discover this one :-)

Eduardo2017-07-24T00:00:00Z

The stay was fine at Giorgios. It is very welcoming and kind. The village is a bit isolated but that adds charm to the trip.

Justine2016-08-19T00:00:00Z

Feneri house is a good destination for persons who like quietness. It'real Cretan village with kindness of the people. The house is fresh with courtyard with vine tree. Our host let us vegetables,olive oil and raki for welkoming and pies. Everything for start were here (salt-peper-sugar... We recommend this house.

Marie-Paule2017-09-08T00:00:00Z

Great chance to spend a few days being more of this small but perfectly cozy village located in western Crete inhabitant. With car of course, access to all tourist spots concrete and West is great. Giorgos was a great host, patiently awaiting our arrival, always available for any questions and showing the house and culture of Crete, as well as some of his little secrets. The house is fascinating, a total disconnect from the big cities, quiet and cozy, clean but also gives the feeling that you are part of the family living there. It was very nice and a great detail for its supply us all kinds of commodities and not as basic as a magnificent olive oil, peanuts and olives typical of the area, among other things part. It is a unique experience and I am grateful to have had the opportunity to live it.

Pol2016-08-26T00:00:00Z

We can say that the location is very special and close to the most beautiful beaches of Crete. The house is definitely to be renovated, especially the bathroom and furnishings. The cleaning does not appear faultless especially considering the price. The owner was always prompt in responding to our messages but is not present on the spot. Cordial and friendly villagers.

This place has 1 big living room with double bed and 1 bedroom with one double bed, one single and one camp bed.

This house is very near to the best beaches of south Chania (just 10km) from Elafonissi and Kedrodassos.
The name of the village is "plokamiana"

Eva's place is a good choice to visit the wonderful Elafonisi beach, because it's just at 10/15 minutes by car. The house is simple but charming, and you can feel the atmosphere of a "Cretan family house". There's a kitchen and two bedrooms, one with a double bed and the other with two beds, and there's a big bathroom just outside the house. Eva is really kind and flexible and she has a special energy and a great smile. Unfortunately we stayed there just one night!

Cecilia2016-08-15T00:00:00Z

The house is very typical Greek. Perfect location, just on the road to Elafonisi beach. We did not have the chance to meet Eva in person but she was always very responsive to our messages (we had no issues with the house).

Daniela2017-08-21T00:00:00Z

Very nice little house, but the airbnb location was wrong and there was a lack of aircondition. So mostly ok.

Virginie2016-08-27T00:00:00Z

Pleasant stay and the feeling of living in a real Cretan house, spartan and no frills. The advise to who is fed up with 5 stars and all inclusive. It is about a 15 minute drive from the paradisiacal beach of Elafonissi and 10 minutes from a major supermarket. Eva, the woman who runs the hotel, is very nice friendly is able to provide all the logistical information.

Paolo2016-07-18T00:00:00Z

Traditional house, looks better in reality than in photos, you will find all you need in this house and more, close to Elafonissi, there is also close taverna with good meals and good prices, we enjoyed our stay there, Eva is welcoming person, she was in time for our check-in and check out, thank you for all Eva ! :)

Achraf2017-07-17T00:00:00Z

Our stay Eva was very positive. The accommodation is in a great location to visit Elafonissi beach and in a very quiet village. Nearby there is a small supermarket and eating places very nice and good. The apartment does not lack anything. The hospitality of Eva was perfect, explained everything and even recommended a small beach to visit nearby less crowded than the famous Elafonissi. absolutely recommended apartment!

Mr Vasilis promptly contacted us to provide directions& arrange arrival time. We were met and greeted by his wife- Mrs Evaggelia upon entering the village. Words can't describe the house itself,modern furnished & decorated to the very last detail. Spotless clean, superb quality of bed sheets, pillows etc. I can honestly say that this house was better than any 5 star hotel we stayed in the past. Breath taking views from the balcony overlooking the mountains and other villages nearby. Mr Vasilis and his family demonstrated truly Cretan hospitality by making us feel part of the family, they even provided us with fresh Cretan vegetables grown at their garden as well as Cretan beverages. You rarely come across people like Mr Vasilis and his family who made our stay unforgetable. I strongly recommend Mr Vasilis to anyone who wants to have an amazing time yet relaxed. We will definitely be back next summer:-)big massive thank you from all of us

Matthaios2017-07-15T00:00:00Z

Very relaxing and enjoyable! We were together with our almost 2 year old daughter for 3 days in Papa Diana. Evangelia has received us in the village and taken to the apartment. Set in the small (unfortunately almost extinct) mountain village in absolute idyll, we had with all the trimmings did not expect such a modern apartment! Even the fridge was already filled with breakfast items and products from our own harvest. The laws live just below and are very warm, accommodating and hospitable. Although the two spoke only Greek, it impedes communication only slightly. With hands, feet, cake, food, wine and raki one feels quickly absorbed into the family. We felt all around well and would love to come back! Thanks and best regards!

Andre2016-10-08T00:00:00Z

Apartment on top! New, very clean, quiet, beautiful mountain views, spacious, fully equipped! 10 min Elafonissi, very good tavern in the village of next 2 minutes by car. And above all a great welcome by the family that struggled to leave after only two days, good advice for nearby destinations. A real good place to advise everyone, we will come back for sure! Thank you to them for letting us know about the Cretan traditions and this fabulous home.

christel2016-08-25T00:00:00Z

This is a really great space if you want get away from the touristy parts of Greece. It's not walkable, so you do need a car, but it's definitely worth it. The space was very clean, and the hosts left a nice amount of fresh food in the fridge for us which was very nice. Great views, plenty of space, I would definitely recommend a visit!

edoardo2017-08-21T00:00:00Z

Perfect base for accessing west side of Crete. Host was really lovely and helpful. The only thing to note is this the village itself doesn't have any shops or restaurants - you'll need to drive for amenities. Lovely outdoor spots but the village was super windy.

Fatima2017-08-29T00:00:00Z

This is a traditional village house over a little stream in a small village. Good base for Elafonisi and enjoying mountain air. The sky at night is full of stars. Very relaxing. Giorgos is a very welcoming host making sure we had everything we needed.

In terms of location (close to Elafonisi) cost & hospitality-wise, make this one of the very best places to stay...the room is perfect for a couple, with nice size toilet, small kitchen & cool outside space...its very quiet with 15 mins drive to Elafonisi or Elos village for the best food or 45 mins drive to Paleochora...the host family are amazingly helpful & I would reccomend just about anyone to try this place...Thank you once again Mrs Xrisoula

Ylber2016-06-30T00:00:00Z

The host was very nice and available for any tips and suggestions. The room is nice, clean and provided with air conditioning and fridge in shared room. There is small but very usefull private terrace. It is located in a small and silent village (we slept really well!) in a very strategic position to reach beautiful places, like Elafonisos and Kedrodasos. Nice tavernas can be reached within 5 - 10 minutes by car. Thanks again to Manos (and to his grandmather Costula)! Giuseppe and Alessandra

Giuseppe2014-08-31T00:00:00Z

I didn't have the pleasure to meet Manos in person but I met his lovely mother, we had a very cosy welcome: she was super kind, we found amazing marmalades, pastries and fruit waiting for us. The place was very cosy, we had our own terrace where we used to have breakfast and we fell in love with their lovely cat! Manos has been always available for everything we needed! Definitely recommend it!

Giuseppe2017-08-07T00:00:00Z

We were warmly welcomed upon our arrival by the kind family of Manos. The room is located in a quiet village only 15 minutes from the fabulous Elafonisi beach. Nights were very quiet which made for a good night’s sleep at the end of a busy day. The room itself was spacious and well stocked with bathroom and general household products. A special mention should be made about our friendly hosts; they were very kind and helpful for discovering the area and even offered us some delicious cakes, which we immensely enjoyed. A great value overall for those seeking to discover the southwest of Crete!

James2015-08-16T00:00:00Z

Wonderful !!! Apartment 10 min from elafonissi. Welcomed and pampered as guests of a 5 star hotel. The lady gave us a room with: tv, comfy bed, air conditioning, hairdryer, fridge full of fruit jam home made cake butter juice juice etc., rushed slices, fresh boiled eggs every day, milk, panzerotti and more ... In the room over there is: kettle, toaster, cups, glasses and cutlery and a small breakfast table ... very silent apartment, electric shutters and no curtains !!! Perfect x sleep well. Shower 90x90 or maybe larger, the best found in our cretan holiday, in the hotel the bathroom is always a bit small, here it is perfect! How to be at home, there is nothing missing! Thank you very much for everything. Enjoy

marco2015-07-16T00:00:00Z

Manos's appartment is really nice and super close to Elafonisi beach and the tavernas. It's roomy, clean and with everything needed for a short stay next to the beach (even had some beach mats). His mother is really nice and prepared for us some cakes and lemon juice. She was always there to help us and answer our questions, it was really helpful.

Deborah2016-08-21T00:00:00Z

Our host Tzeni - along with George and Bill - were excellent hosts: we couldn't have been more pleased with them and their wonderful property, villa Armonia (Harmony). From the moment we arrived they made us feel welcome and were available throughout our stay yet gave us privacy and space to relax. The property itself is wonderful: sympathetically built into the gorgeous landscape with excellent views and plenty of room inside and out. The facilities downstairs in the main, spacious room included a well-equipped kitchen with a big fridge-freezer, plenty of sofas, a good size TV with a new dvd, a table to eat at and four chairs, as well as shelving and cupboards to keep books and games in. A shower and toilet are also tucked away downstairs. Upstairs there are two large bedrooms, both with balconies affording amazing views and a good size bathroom with bath/shower, sink and another toilet. Outside is wonderful too: plenty of sun loungers, a table with chairs, plenty of flowers and flowering cacti and stunning views. It feels private and secluded and a one minute walk away is the pool - it's a little cool due to the altitude but on a sunny day it's wonderful. A two minute drive or 5 minute walk down the access road brings you to Kefali, a small village with three tavernas. Good for basic food and there's a well equipped shop there too with fresh bread, fruit and veg and various other treats. I'd say you need a car to enjoy the surrounding area which is unspoilt, quiet and beautiful. We went to Elafinisi regularly which is a superb place to hang out and about a 20 minute drive. We also visited the Topolia gorge (about 25 minutes), Elos (about 15 minutes) and took a trip to Balos (over an hour but worth it). The roads in this area are mainly narrow and vertiginous but there are breathtaking views around pretty much every bend interspersed with small unspoilt villages. We also took a trip to Milia Mountain retreat for some amazing food and saw eagles close up on the way back. Overall I'd recommend this holiday to anyone and everyone. My partner, our 7 year old daughter and I loved every minute of it. Tzeni and her family are kind and generous and Tzeni is great at quickly getting back to any enquiries. And it's very reasonably priced!

This was an amazing place and would fully recommend. Ioannis was friendly and helpful, meeting us on arrival even though we were delayed so didn't get in until after midnight. The view from the house is incredible and the location is great for visiting Elafonisi.

Aidan2016-09-16T00:00:00Z

This is a beautiful property in a friendly village, about 15 minutes from Elafonisi. The pool is lovely and has great views, and my 8-year-old daughter loved playing with a visiting cat. It is worthwhile to go down the winding paths of the village to the church and see the ancient frescos. Ioannis is a great host, very welcoming and knowledgeable about the area.

This is a fabulous place, has everything you need.

Garry and Liz2017-06-10T00:00:00Z

Lovely little quiet studio in a cute village around 20 minutes drive from the main part of Elafonisi. The apartment was far nicer than displayed in the pictures with a great pool with a view. A couple of lovely restaurants within 5 minutes walk and a small shop for very basics. The access is via a very steep hill, we had someone come meet us to take our bags up which was very helpful however walking up and down won't be easy for anyone with any kind of mobility issues.

Olivia2016-07-14T00:00:00Z

Superb accommodation where Ioannis welcomed us very warmly. We would have liked to enjoy its beautiful pool but time decided otherwise. Being quiet in the mountains and close to many beautiful sites, what more can you ask for?

Danielle2017-05-30T00:00:00Z

Beautiful home in a great location on the hillside-but if you are arriving after dark the house will be very hard to find. I loved my short stay, but my only problem was that the wifi did not work at all.

Chynna2017-08-16T00:00:00Z

The place is beautifully located, and tastefully designed. Ioannis is a welcoming and helpful host. Thank you.

It is the perfect base for people, who want to enjoy incredible nature, the best beaches, great local food, real cretan life an sunsets over the sea. The flat is nice, but the terrace and the pool are best. You got orange trees wich spend shadow and a remarkable view over the valley and the village. The pool is big and clean, so you can really swim. Ioannis is an nice host, who always helps you out with insider tips for what to do. We can totaly recommend it to you.

Michele2017-06-29T00:00:00Z

The appartment where we (wife, husband and daughter of 16) stayed only 2 days was a great experience. It was brandnew, we had the feeling, we were the first visitors. We had a little problems finding the adress, for there is no housenumber. But she came to get us in the neighbourhood and helped us. The house overlooks a sloping valley to the sea and of course the sea. Wonderfull site. We had a rental car, which is absolutely necesarry. But driving there and to the beach was a great pleasure. An amazing tourist hotspot at Elafonisi beach. Good restaurants, not so far and later we found a beach, close to Elafonisi close to the sea, but much more private and also shadows. So that was a bonus. Close by, on the road, 2 km's before the apartment, there is a sort cafe, with great orange juice , beautifull panorama and an very funnyowner (lots of stories), who has a local dogs walking around with puppies, which is even for a dog sceptic, very lovely. And a donkey walks in. So, we had a wonderfull 2 days

P.J.2017-07-16T00:00:00Z

Best ever place we had on our round trip of Western Crete. Hoisted on a hill, the two storey house has a balcony at the top and a terrace at the bottom, both overlooking a magnificent view of the sea. It is amazingly quiet, the perfect place to recharge before going to the beach or on a hiking trip. And to top all of it, expect a very warm welcome and a lovely host.

We are missing this beautiful and quiet place already! If you are going for a quiet, authentic, soul filling experience in Crete, this place is a jewel! A special thanks to our wonderful hosts Mary and Ioannis who were incredibly hospitable, we were extremely tiered when we arrived on the first day but we were welcomed like Family, Ioannis prepared some snacks and many home made products, we were also left with enough Raki, olive oil and oregano to last us a month! Si vous comptez venir sur l'île de Crète en Grèce et vous chechez une experience inoubliable, je vous conseille fortement de louer une auto et vous rendre à cette place formidable bâtit en 1906, la maison a été préservé avec le décor antique mais adapté pour être fonctionnel en 2016.

Ali2016-07-26T00:00:00Z

We decided to book Villa Elafonisi because we wanted to go to the famous Elafonisi beach. We were welcomed by our host Maria and her husband who were both very pleasant. They served us some local bread, cheese, honey and some Raki on the terrace and took the time to explain the area and how to get to different places of interest. The house is functional and very clean. We had everything we needed. The decor is a bit dark inside but the outdoor terrasse is huge and has very nice open view. There are no neighbours as the house is the only one on that road. Therefore, it's very quiet. Getting to the beach was a good 40 minute drive on the sinuous roads. We went to Elafonisi beach at sunset and sunrise. It's spectacular.

Daniel2014-07-27T00:00:00Z

The perfect spot in the mountains. Away from truism, private, romantic and beautiful! This place is amazing! Ioannis was there waiting for us giving us a warm welcome and showed us around the lovely apartment, which is just as beautiful as the pictures. They offer breakfast for 7€ per person per day - and you should definitely try this. All local! Spices, jam, honey, oil - everything! Ioannis told us to go to the beach nearby Elafonisi - private and beautiful, he said. And I must say- it was both! We were almost alone there and the beach were even more amazing than Elafonisi, which is also really beautiful but very crowded. Ioannis and Maria are the perfect hosts! It was like visiting family and their apartment is truly amazing. We got to see the most breathtaking sunset! So thank you so much for this wonderful experience. Hope to see you again some time. Martin and Dorte

The house of Iannis and Maria is just beautiful! Located in an old school, it has been carefully restored and the area is of great natural value. The rooftop terrace is breathtaking! But the thing we most enjoyed was the reception and care of Giannis, which from beginning to end of our stay has spoiled us with food, drinks, tips and valuable assistance. We will bring with us always a beautiful memory of these days! Thank you!!

Simply fantastic. Great welcome the owners are very friendly and discreet. The house is beautiful spacious and very clean. The view is breathtaking. A good oil vinegar salt and oregano that provision is given in honor of the greeting. The Elafonissi beach is only a half hour. There are places to get excellent dinners a few kilometers .There again subito.Consigliatissimo

Claudia2016-08-31T00:00:00Z

This is an historic stone building in a remote part of Crete. The beach is around 40 minutes by car, but it sure is a nice beach. We loved the quiet location, the view but the experience was tampered by the fact that the lighting in the house is very harsh, even the bedside lamps. Too bad, as the place itself is beautiful!

Wiebke2015-10-09T00:00:00Z

Magnificent views of the green Cretan mountains in a clean and cozy home at the top of a hill. Near all the best beaches of Western Chania (Elafonisi, Falasarna, Paleohora), you can live like a real local here in a no-frills unspoiled Cretan village with all needed amenities. The village has delicious tavernas and stands stores to eat local and great hiking opportunities.

This is a new construction, clean and simple, built on the site of our family home. It is perched on top of the hillside and offers 360 degree views all around. The access is easy, just off the road there is a dedicate parking spot.
Walk into the living room, comfortable with its couches and arm chairs, open plan with a full kitchen with views to the countryside. Plenty of light and privacy. Just off the kitchen, the terrace is a dream, where you can lounge and muse over the countryside, read a book, eat at the outdoor dining table, or take a nap in the hammock! Here is a perfect spot to cool off after a warm day at the beach!
The steps lead up to the two bedrooms, both comfortable with double beds and windows looking out to the countryside. The bathroom is on the ground floor, new and clean!
Fully equipped, this comfortable home is a perfect little getaway to authentic Crete!

The village of Elos is known for its chestnut forest. It is a simple and lushioushly green village, perfect for the summertime (cooler temperatures than down by the coast), where one can really get to know the insider's Crete. There are many local products and tavernas to be enjoyed, as well as walks around the village and the surrounding countryside.
The best news is that visitors can really be at a peaceful natural area, yet easily get to all the most famous and gorgeous beaches and coastal areas of Elafonisi, Balos Beach and Lagoon, Paleohora, and Falasarna. It is a natural paradise and yet very close to conveniences such as pharmacy, grocery store, restaurants, etc.

We spent fantastic 3 days at Michalis' place. His house is very well equiped and clean. The patio is wonderful! The house is located very close to the center of the village with a few nice tavernas and a basic store. You can reach nice beaches in 30 mins drive (e.g. Elafonisi) Michalis is a very nice and helpful person. The welcome he made us with his wife was owesome. We felt like coming to visit our close family. We fully recommend Michalis and his place!
